How much was that extended service package though?

There is no swastika, anyone seeing it, is clearly creating the symbolism in their head. Ease up on the crack, alcohol, or lack of sleep.

I had a kid actually tell me, "cool swastikas"!, I'm Hispanic lol. And I never even met this kid in my life. I could tell he was just being negative. Later I found out that he was actually an s2k owner, 18yrs old at the latest maybe.. So yeah, he was defiantly just looking to bash on my ride. I love the logo

If you don't see it that is all fine and good but please do not accuse my family and self of substance abuse because of you don't agree.

Looks good! Any concerns with the amount of rad it covers? Have you had a chance to drive it yet to see what performance improvements it made?

Actually I was quite shocked, as I had the same concerns about how it sits near the radiator. But removing the stock air diversion shield seems to free up space in front of the radiator. And with the stock airbox being removed, seems there is more room for the fans on the rear side. The temp is running about 10C less then stock. Sounds great and the little bit of acceleration increase was quite surprising. Didn't expect much from 15 WHP gain.

Can't wait to get some dyno time to get the real numbers and do resonator / no resonator testing. It's on for now.

Get rid of some of the 4000rpm dip? I noticed a big difference with just my TRD drop in filter so would think this just about eliminates it (or at least reduces it to almost unnoticeable).

Oh yeah the dip is nearly gone (still think it could benefit from better headers) and man does it really sound good as soon as it crosses 3800rpm's!

As I did not know there were already several posts on the subject when I told my little anecdote I am deleting my posts to allow this thread to go back to the posted subject.
I did not mean to offend and had only intended point out the silliness of such a thing. Obviously others are seeing it and I plainly don't despite the helpful drawing to make apparent what people are seeing. Call it shared fabrication I guess.
Anyhow, I meant no attack on you personally and if it was taken that way, I apologise.
